Applebee's Fish may be best known for their Borough Market location (after starting as a stall) but now they're about to head further up the river with a summer-long pop-up at the South Bank, joining Truffle under the Hungerford Bridge.
There's a lot to the large space, including a circular Champagne and oyster bar as well as a sandpit set up for the odd game of petanque (no, we don't know how to play that).
As for the food, we can expect:
- Oysters from Richard Hayward from Mersea (also from Borough Market)
- Fish and chips using sustainably sourced cod fillet deep-fried in a harbour beer batter
- Panko prawns on a cucumber, coriander and mint salad finished with homemade kimchi mayonnaise
- Seabass ceviche
- Tuna & salmon tartare
- And something that could be very handy for passers-by, their chip butty.
Alongside all that, wine and Champagne as well as beer from Cornwall#s Harbour brewery. All in all, it sounds like a very pleasant way to spend time on the South Bank.
